This edited volume, encompassing contributions from scholars with diverse areas of specialization, delves into a comprehensive examination of methodologies, ideologies, and pedagogies centered around the study of African art. Through theoretical reflections and practical applications ranging from primitivism to metamodernism, the chapters challenge the conventional boundaries imposed on Africa-related works, transcending the traditional fragmented categories of traditional, contemporary, and diaspora. The contributions are remarkably diverse in their methodologies, ideologies, and pedagogical approaches, yet they all explore various facets of African artistic creativity, showcasing the potential for analytical experiments within the realm of art history. While each approach possesses its unique character, they collectively contribute to a deeper understanding of African art studies as an independent branch of art historical research, closely interconnected with the broader family of art history. The volume pays homage to the distinctiveness of each methodological approach, recognizing its valuable contribution to the overall character or Ìwà of African art studies.

The book appeals to students enrolled in undergraduate or graduate courses, as well as scholars engaged in art history and African studies. Its comprehensive coverage and insightful perspectives make it an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to explore the rich tapestry of African art and its historical context.
